Riddle Me This, Too

Am I being paranoid, or has AI actually made autocorrect worse?

If we’re going to start stuffing LLMs into every crack and crevice of our lives like cream into cheap profiteroles, could we at least include a way to give it feedback? Because I would dearly like to have some way of explaining to my phone that no, I did not and will never wish to discuss “the copy of her hair,” and starting a sentence with “I’m fact, …” makes me both look and feel like a maniac.

Mal-Come Again, AGAIN?

I was careful to enunciate extra-clearly this time. I guess they did leave out the ‘h,’ so… Partial success?

It’s the same handwriting! Who is this maniac??

Content note: profanity, physics

This is my second attempt to gesture flailingly at an epiphany I had a little while ago. It won’t be the last, I think.

Some Days You Wake up and Choose Violence

A "fun-size" Hershey's chocolate bar showing someone took a big bite out of it instead of breaking off the little pieces, like it's a banana or something, what kind of sicko does that??
Been feeling a little unhinged lately 🙃

I Guess It Was Me

So, remember that missing “like” button I was talking about last week? Well…

The author scrolls through a WordPress article, then looks for the "like" button at the bottom, which is nowhere to be seen. Then he scrolls back up again, and a toolbar pops up prominently featuring said button. The author then proceeds to feel dumb.

So… Do any of you know what the market is like right now for skinny, 37-year-old, slightly-queer camboys? Asking for a friend.

Design So Bad It’s Gaslighting

So there I am, reading someone else’s post on WordPress. I get to the bottom and start looking for the “like” button because I did, in fact, like it. I can see it’s been “liked” by about a hundred other people. I can even see which ones! And I can see that I’m logged in, so that shouldn’t be a problem.

And yet, there is no “like” button to be seen–no star, no heart, no thumbs-up, nothing. I look up. I look down. I look from side to side. It’s not anywhere!

I’m not sure if it’s me or the UI, but at least one of us is absolutely moronic.
